This Afternoon's Tab & Mama's Magic Bag

2 Adult Matinee Tickets: $8.00 each
2 Adult tickets: an outrageous $10.00 each because we couldn't get our act together to leave an hour earlier

3 Kids' tickets: $7.00 each
4 Kids' tickets: $7.00 each because when I asked the guy if I had to pay for the "little one", he didn't react like he should have. In other words, he didn't say what the last guy said: "She looks young enough. You don't have to pay for her." In fact, he asked me how old she is, and I couldn't lie.

1 large Coke for Daddy: $4.75
3 small Cokes: $3.75 each
1 small fruit punch because the baby doesn't like Coke: $3.75
1 bottle of water for Mommy: $4.50
1 large popcorn for Daddy: $6.75
4 small popcorns: 4.75 each
4 Twizzlers: $3.00 each
1 Milk Duds for Mommy which she would prefer NOT to share: $3.00
1 Combo w/2 large drinks to share, 1 large popcorn to be schlepped into 4 small paper bags from Mama's Magic Bag, and 1 small fruit juice for the baby who doesn't like Coke: $20.00
1 mammoth, sharing-sized bag of Publix Twizzlers from Mama's Magic Bag: $2.27
1 borderline-sharing-sized box of Publix Milk Duds from Mama's Magic Bag: $2.29

Is Mama's magic bag anything like mama's magic spit? Love the blog! I am now a fan!

I'm always amazed at the cost just to see a movie as a family. =/

We stick with the matinees and that still sets us back quite a bit...

But the memories are wonderful!

There always seems to be a dose of annoying with every pleasure.
